| 1 | Glad I left the "manosphere" when I did (rant)Why thank you! It definitely feels good to be mostly free from that atmosphere. It’s one of things that I don’t notice until I notice it. It’s terrifying because of how rampant it is now. | /r/ExRedPill | 20/02/23 10:29 PM |
| 2 | Glad I left the "manosphere" when I did (rant)Unless you're experienced in family court, either by being a lawyer or actually going through family court, most redpillers don't actually understand the complexities of the law and legal system to constantly make the assumption that "marriage bad cuz divorce rape". I personally don't anticipate getting married in the formal sense because it is a primarily a bible thumping ritual to exchange and consolidate property between families. I never cared for the colonizers "traditions" before or after … | /r/ExRedPill | 09/02/23 06:42 AM |
| 10 | Glad I left the "manosphere" when I did (rant)Have to disagree my guy, it’s an insanely toxic space that constantly promotes emotional abuse and manipulation of women. Books like “The Rational Male” are pseudoscientific cash grabs backed by no real peer reviewed research and evidence, and a tool for indoctrination. Rollo is not a perspective I would want to influence my perception of reality. | /r/ExRedPill | 06/02/23 02:33 PM |
| 14 | Glad I left the "manosphere" when I did (rant)Yeah, it’s harder to catch when you’re younger. Self reflection is only happens when you cringe at yourself and realize you were wrong about a lot. A lot of these pseudo intellectual “redpillers” ranting about how right they are about everything is the exact opposite of “self-reflection.” Disillusionment is the right word, and I wish so many of these young men would break out of it. | /r/ExRedPill | 06/02/23 03:19 AM |
| 9 | Glad I left the "manosphere" when I did (rant)Wow… I never thought anything I wrote would have an impact on other people 💜. I appreciate you sharing your story too, and that you shared it with your partner. I wish you both the best. | /r/ExRedPill | 06/02/23 03:17 AM |
| 5 | Why is Red pill so additive? I don't understand how it sucks in so many people?A lot of men want a reason they are being rejected that doesn’t involve looking at themselves. Misery loves company. | /r/ExRedPill | 12/01/22 02:53 PM |
| 1 | What’s your opinion on the “you wouldn’t ask a fish how to fish, you’d ask the fisher” analogy?THANK YOU. I have always despised this saying. I have always just preferred clear communication. | /r/ExRedPill | 01/01/22 04:45 AM |
| 11 | "A key that opens many locks is a master key, but a lock that opens to many keys is a shitty lock"imo promiscuity does not increase the value of anything. The only thing it increases is unplanned pregnancy and the risk of dysfunctional home lives. The people I have met in person who are promiscuous are not people I would associate with, let alone sleep with. In my experience, promiscuous people I have met have no boundaries or filters. I'm not speaking for all promiscuous people, to each their own, its just my experience. | /r/ExRedPill | 11/08/21 01:44 PM |
| 17 | what made you spit out the Koolaid aka "redpill"?Seeing my mental health continue to deteriorate with their negative ideas. Also seeing a lot of racist posts from TRP and "manosphere" YouTubers during the 2020 protests. | /r/ExRedPill | 29/07/21 02:37 PM |
| 6 | what made you spit out the Koolaid aka "redpill"?It's really getting that bad? Shit, it was originally just bitterness and self improvement. I think self help is going down the cult route too just because of how easy it is to make millions off of vulnerable people. | /r/ExRedPill | 29/07/21 02:30 PM |
| 2 | Men's mental health and "the red pill"I think it's called "acceptance". I had to do a lot of digging internally for that one. My parents had a bad divorce when I was a preschooler, my mom took me out of preschool to guilt trip him into staying. He packed his shit and left right in front of me. I chased him down the alleyway trying to get him to come back but he didn't. That event was traumatizing for me, along with the continued abuse by my mother in the following years. I had to learn to accept that decisions were made for me, and … | /r/ExRedPill | 29/07/21 02:15 PM |
| 9 | Men's mental health and "the red pill"Psychotherapy is amazing. The Egyptians and the hermetics actually somewhat knew about this through Alchemy. Alchemy revolved around the idea of "changing the chemistry of the brain with your thoughts." Amazing how it's now being backed by science. I've said it in a different subreddit, now that I know what my problems really are, it helps me find peace with the idea or finding a partner. I'm fine deferring my time dating if that means my head is screwed on a little straighter. I'd rather have n… | /r/ExRedPill | 29/07/21 03:00 AM |
| 2 | How do I stop feeling like a shit every time I get ghosted?I didn't say mid date. If you just don't click, or if you are interested in someone else, at least shoot a message and break it off. I said in a different comment, only times ghosting can really be justified is if the person seems potentially abusive, threatening, or crosses boundaries. Other than that, it's pretty shitty to ghost. Making it normal to ghost people who didn't do anything wrong is not OK, and is just a lack of respect for people. | /r/ExRedPill | 28/07/21 10:08 PM |
| 3 | How do I stop feeling like a shit every time I get ghosted?The bachelor is a poor reference point. I don't agree with that thought process. Just break it off clean with a message. This mentality is why dating is unappealing for most people today. | /r/ExRedPill | 28/07/21 06:16 PM |
| 12 | How do I stop feeling like a shit every time I get ghosted?I totally agree with ghosting potential abusive people and narcissists. I had a female friend who was going through a breakup, she got way too "touchy feely" with me one night out drinking, signaling she wanted to hook up with absolutely NO COMMUNICATION. So I ghosted her. I felt my boundaries were crossed so I bounced. Sometimes ghosting is justified. | /r/ExRedPill | 28/07/21 06:11 PM |
| 2 | Opinion on statement "Women don't care about your struggles. They wait at the finish line and pick the winners"?That sucks. I empathize with this, not from a romantic perspective, but I had family members like this. Any codependent relationship is bad. Sadly mine hindered my ability to find a romantic partner. I'm male 26, kind of in the same boat though. I'm not going out of my way to change myself or put my career/hobbies/interests on hold for someone. It would be nice, but I know I'm too fucked in the head to function as a healthy partner. I'd rather avoid relationships than bring about new destructive… | /r/ExRedPill | 27/07/21 09:00 PM |
| 3 | Do redpill men have mother issues?There is a lot of truth in this. I can at least give an anecdote as I do not know how much of this is backed by research. I had an abusive mother and I experienced a lot of "misdirected anger" towards myself and everyone else. I projected a lot of my anger on to women and fell into the "red pill" mentality for a few years. Once I got more experience and developed more relationships after college, my view changed. As I had a lot of female friends and coworkers who were nothing like what the red p… | /r/ExRedPill | 01/04/21 12:54 AM |
| 0 | my experience with a red pill exDrug addiction is a behavior pattern caused by underlying mental illness, mostly psychological and poor impulse control. Chemical dependence and withdrawals are the part that make it a "literal physical condition". And long term problems do persist regardless if that person decided to change. Same when it comes to casual sex, the behavior pattern will persist regardless if that person "changed". Long term satisfaction in a marriage is impacted by sexual history. Marriage just needs to be done aw… | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 06:27 PM |
| 1 | my experience with a red pill exI am referring to the long haul, the real part of marriage that people never talk about, when that "spark" fades and you are left with your initial baseline before you started "loving" that person lol. People with higher body counts are generally left with the desire for the variety they got while sleeping around, and this has been shown to have a real effect on the long term satisfaction of a marriage with one partner for both genders. | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 06:14 PM |
| 0 | my experience with a red pill exHigher rates of sexual activity and more partners usually leads to less long term satisfaction in marriage for both genders. Sex is an intimate experience that emotionally bonds men and women. When it is treated as casual or a way to "screen" a person desensitizes themselves to the thing that bonds them to their partner. | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 06:04 PM |
| 0 | my experience with a red pill exGood ole survivorship bias. I congratulate you on your marriage though. Marriage is like winning the lottery. You're probably not gonna win, but when you do...yay! | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 05:52 PM |
| -1 | my experience with a red pill exPeople should avoid potential partners that are more likely to cheat. A parallel would be dating someone who used to be a drug addict. They may be clean right now, but that history will always lead to problems down the line when tension between partners inevitably happens. People do not change all that much, and when under stress people fall back into their old impulses. | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 04:45 PM |
| -1 | my experience with a red pill exIt's not so much hitting a number of partners and a switch flips, but more of a psychological predisposition that leads to a high number of partners. More of a display of what a person desires and they are more likely to get bored down the line. Long term relationships are stronger and last longer when the partners are still sexually attracted to one another. When that synchronization inevitably fades between partners, one of them gets bored and reminisces about the times that they were desired … | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 04:40 PM |
| -5 | my experience with a red pill exSorry you went through that. Generally speaking though, a promiscuous sexual history does not bode well for long term relationships. Emotional bonding is less likely. But this is for both men and women. Unfortunate that the relationship tanked the moment you shared your sexual history. | /r/ExRedPill | 19/12/20 12:51 PM |
| 4 | I left r/mgtow recentlyMany of us on this sub dealt with the same thing. Don't sweat it. Young impressionable men want to feel valued in some sort of way. The key isn't to cut yourself off from women or see them as hypergamous sluts. The idea is not to root your value in your "body count", or to seek validation from women. And it's not just validation from women either, but from other insecure men who think that value is derived from the "sexual marketplace" eye roll Therapists are trial and error. Just keep searching… | /r/ExRedPill | 22/11/20 12:47 AM |
| 3 | Any thoughts about this?Don't sweat it. It kind of bothers me the way that your current BF makes you feel less of yourself and keeps feeding you this material. I am a male so here is my input. In short, I found that "the red pill" is passive agressive mysoginy. It is nothing but pseudo-psychology from a bunch of bitter dudes with big egos that cannot hold down a real relationship. They create these fabricated ideas of "sexual value" as if human bonds are a commodity or a trade (Haha bonds). The only people that really … | /r/ExRedPill | 08/11/20 03:26 PM |
| 6 | Any thoughts about this?Thought provoking. But also blanket statements about the way he perceives the dating world from his own set of eyes. There isn't a "cutoff" time for someone to find a partner. Dating history is different for most people and expectations will not be the same between every single man and woman. It is kind of irritating when people make these assumptions about both genders, as if they know the ins and outs of everyone's romantic interests and how they change with age. | /r/ExRedPill | 08/11/20 06:03 AM |
| 1 | My Red Pill StoryFair point, I did not think of it like that. That is insightful and I appreciate the input. It still is a case by case argument though, and I disagreed with making blanket statements about single parenthood households. I choose not to debate redpillers as a personal preference because there are too many of them getting the wrong impression and spreading hateful sexist ideas instead of teaching men to have self respect. It takes up bandwidth of my mind to expose myself to this content. I want to … | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 04:15 PM |
| 4 | My Red Pill StoryI agree with that one. Do not "white knight" or "simp" for women who do not treat you with respect. It is how you get used. And pardon my ignorance, what is SMV? | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 05:24 AM |
| 3 | My Red Pill StoryThanks man. The only thing that helped me figure out dating was asking women out on dates. No forum, person or coach will ever help me figure it out better than first hand experience. I am not worried about whether or not I am with someone. Life by myself is pretty awesome. It will just become awesome-er if I am fortunate enough to meet someone who cares enough to share it with me. | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 05:18 AM |
| 3 | My Red Pill StoryI'm so happy you wrote that down. That is the best analogy I have ever seen dude! Thanks for sharing that! | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 05:05 AM |
| 3 | My Red Pill StoryThat is their target audience it seems. And thanks. People in my real life helped me see that most of that stuff isn't true. | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 04:39 AM |
| 2 | My Red Pill StoryThanks homie. I hope to do the same. Companionship is what I seek now. I don't think I've ever been a "casual sex" kind of guy anyway. It's why I couldn't ever hook up with a stranger I bumped into at a party or bar. | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 03:03 AM |
| 16 | My Red Pill StoryThanks dude. I am glad that I am no longer getting fed content that dehumanizes women like this. It was bad for my mental health and added bitterness in my mind from stories that do not even apply to my life. | /r/ExRedPill | 01/11/20 01:52 AM |
| 5 | What made you GYOW? Would like to hear everyone’s stories.Rejection. After being humiliated enough times I just kinda gave up. I no longer saw the benefit for how shitty chasing women made me feel about myself. I want to do things I actually enjoy. | /r/MGTOW | 21/09/19 12:53 AM |
| 1 | Apparently if you're a single man in today's society, you're a loserThe most common question for me is "are you married" and "do you have kids". It's always a shock to them when I say no. Or I usually get "you still have time". All the time in the world for something I have no intention of engaging in. | /r/MGTOW | 30/08/19 07:33 PM |
